• You can indicate with your submission whether or not you’d like feedback on your submitted piece(s)! We definitely don’t want to heavily edit, change, or strip down your core ideas, but we would love to support you in making your creative work even stronger where possible.
• Looking for a collaborator on a piece/project? Let us know, and we’ll plug you into our network!
• If accepted, we’ll work with you to figure out if your submission will be shared here on the Filter Feeder newsletter, in a quarterly print zine, or on social media (or a combination).
• Above all, we want to amplify your unique perspective through whatever format you’re most excited to share in — writing, art, multimedia, or really anything else we can figure out a way to embed into this newsletter.
• Got questions? Totally feel free to reach out ([email protected]) literally anytime — super happy to brainstorm, talk about your ideas, anything! This is a verrrry casual process and the whole form system exists mostly so we/I can stay organized lol.

JAN–MAR 2025: NATURE LOVED & LOST

in classic february (and winter!) spirit, let’s get into really unpacking our relationships with our local nature.

need some inspo? potential topics include (but aren’t limited to):

• cycles of life & what we can learn from them
• how non-human nature has influenced and/or shaped your world of human relationships
• animal courtship rituals (there are so many weird & fun ones)
• an endangered species that speaks to you
• symbiosis (obvi)
• things you love that you want to protect for future generations
• anything else that loosely fits the theme!
